The Bulletproof Fan (Youth) Series III ONHOLD AGAIN

Bulletproof 15

"Eun Ae~"

I look at my Papa. He smile at me. I gave him a little smile.

"Is everything fine?"

"Uhmm yeah~ everything is fine."

Sabi ko. I look at the seat beside him. It was empty. Maybe I should call Mama later.

"I'll send you straight to your work after our breakfast so eat~"

"Yah~ you don't really have to do this. Kaya ko namang pumunta sa trabaho pa~"

"Come on~ we barely see each other. Even at night. I always fall asleep waiting for you. Sending you to work is seeing you a bit longer."

I bit my lips. I'm sorry Pa~ I didn't actually realize i'm losing time for him. He was busy at work too that's why I wasn't expecting him to feel that way. Kung nandito lang sana si Mama para maalagaan si Papa.

"I'm sorry Pa~"

He smile widely. Before he brush his finger to my hair.

"Pa~ diba bibisita si Mama sa susunod na linggo-"

"What about it?"

"Will you stay with us even uhmm just a few minutes~ kahit konti lang. Matagal tagal ko na rin kayong hindi nakikitang magkasama."

Napahinga ito ng malalim bago binaba ang kapeng iniinom nito. He touch my hands.

"You know what happened few years ago. I don't know if we can still be the same just like before but.... but I'll try...."

He said while looking away. I smile widely. That's fine. As long as they see each other. I hope this time they'll give each other a chance. Napahinga ako ng malalim bago nagpatuloy sa pagkain. Noong graduation nag away sila ni Papa nung umuwi ako.

"Do you think i'm stupid?!"

"Oo tanga ka!"

"Why can't you believe me atleast once?! I went there for work not to some random girl you are talking about!"

Napakagat ako ng labi at tiningnan ko ang aking sarili. Basang-basa ako. Siguradong lalo silang mag aaway nito. Napatalon ako nang makarinig ng tunog basag na mga gamit. Nanlaki ang mga mata ko ng marinig si Mama na sumigaw. Agad akong pumasoj ng bahay.

"Ma-"

Naputol ang sasabihin ko nang makitang gaano kagulo ang bahay. Napatingin ako sa mga bobog na na nagkalat. Napatingin ako kay Mama at Papa. Nagkatinginan silang dalawa. My heart sunk seeing both of their eyes full of hatred while looking at each other.

"Pagod na ako. Maghiwalay na tayo."

"Eun Ae~ we're here?"

Napatingin ako sa labas. Ngumiti ako kay Papa bago siya binigyan ng halik sa pisngi.

"See ya at home~"

Sabi ko habang nasa labas ng sasakyan. Ngumiti ito bago tumango. Isinara ko ang pinto at kumaway habang paalis ang sasakyan. Huminga ako ng malalim.

"Grace!"

Gulat akong napatingin sa likod ko. Napailing ako ng tumawa ito. It's Nate. One of our guitarist.

"Our manager is waiting for us and oh! Yeah your boyfriend too."

Tumawa ito pagkatapos niya itong sinabi. I rolled my eyes. He's talking about Tim. Naglakad ako palapit sa pintuan papasok ng building sa tinatrabahuan ko. Tumigil ako at tiningnan siya.

"What are you looking at? You look stupid."

He's face turned into smug after I said those.

"What are you always mad about?"
